I’m over the moon that the New York Times has shown its support for small-chested women in a feature published this week: For the A-Cup Crowd, Minimal Assets Are a Plus. Thank you to journalist Catherine Saint Louis for throwing the spotlight on a little known fact: little-breasted women don’t all hanker after voluptuous curves.
In fact, some of us celebrate our “Lilliputian” assets. The feature provides an upbeat walk through the subject of small-busts, with soundbites from little-cup lingerie specialists including SBBH favourites, Lula Lu, Lailides, Eves Apples Lingerie, Itty Bitty Bra, Little Women and The Little Bra Company.
Small bust, Big heart earns a mention as a venue for small-busted women. For new folks to SBBH that have travelled here via the New York Times, I’d like to point you to a few posts that flag up many of the small-bust saviours that provide lingerie and fashion that fits and flatters the petite-up-top body:
The AA-cup to A-cup holiday lingerie packing guide suggests the ideal small-bust capsule bra collection, The definitive small-bust swimwear guide gives you tips on swimwear styles to complement little chests no matter what your body shape, while Perfect AA-cup bras for your Spring Wardrobe gives you heads-up on what to look for when shopping for a discreet bra to wear with skimpy clothing.
If you have a personal small-busted style issue, please contact me and I’ll do my best to find a solution.
Thanks for posting this, it’s nice to see that this site and some of my other favorites (LBC and Eve’s Apples Lingerie) getting some much deserved attention! As a small busted women it’s nice to finally feel like I can shop for my girls without having a boob job!
I, too, am glad to find this site! I’m a 34 or 36 AA (depending on bra) and it’s nearly impossible to find a bra that fits. No smooth transition from my natural, yet small, curves to the bra. It looks like I have a cheap boob job (2 tennis balls strapped to my chest) with the bra options I seem to be able to find in my size. I usually have to compromise and go with an A cup which is too big, but there are more options in that size. Where can I get decent, not heavily-padded AA cups??? HELP!
Hi Dee, where are you based? I’ll try and find you some options.
